The hologram effect will bring your
video into the future in this video we're going to go step by step through the
process of making the hologram effect in davinci resolve. Now I'm gonna go as
fast as possible while explaining, but if you have to pause the video, just
go ahead. Let's just get right into it. If you're new here, hit the subscribe button and the bell
notification to Be updated on the newest DaVinci resolve tutorials put out.
So before we get into davinci, you need a few things. You need a video of yourself or someone
else pretending like there's a hologram there that they're interacting
with. Once you've shot the video, you're going to need a screen recording
of YouTube or something like that that you want to be scrolling through. Also be aware how many times
you scroll in your video, so you can also scroll that many
times in your screen recording. And then finally you're just gonna
need some kind of video that pops up. It can be any video on YouTube. You can just use 4K video downloader
and just download it right there. Once you have all that, you're ready to
go. So let's jump into DaVinci resolve. So now that we're into davinci Resolve, what we're going to do is we're going
to add in and out points to every one of our clips and drag him into our timeline. So I have all my in and
out points already set. So all I'm gonna do is I'm going to
just drag this in. Go to my next clip. So for this one I'm going to grab the
video only cause you don't really need the audio. This is the video that pops
up when I click on it in hologram. So you only need the first like five
seconds of it and then there's drag it on there. You want the audio
and video for that one. Now we have our clips on our timeline
and we can now start building the sequence. So once I click this,
I want the hologram to pop up. So I want to grab my hologram layer, which is just a screen capture and I want
to just drag it right into that place. Now you can see that it's
just black bars right now. So go to cropping and just
crop this to where you like it. I personally cropped the top bars
out because I don't want it there. It just looks ugly. And I also crop the navigation buttons
and the notification and stuff like that. So I'm just getting the menu itself. So now You can see when I hit the
button on my phone, it pops up. The next thing we want to do is
we want to position everything. Now this is gonna take some time,
so at times I'll speed it up. So I'm going to click on my hologram
layer and I'm going to hit flip and then I'm going to drop the opacity
just so I can see through it. We'll have to do it again in fusion, but then I'm going to move it
where I think it would look good, make it smaller if you need to. Then we're going to start messing with
the pan and then you're going to want to start making this go sideways. So now it's starting to look
like it's actually facing me. So now that I got this first
hologram pop up where I want it, I'm just going to do the
same thing for this next one. And when you see me click right here, it's going to pop up. I'm going to mute this track because
this really doesn't need to be on. So now that we have it in place, you
see that it just takes over the frame. So zoom out on it, position
it the way it should be. Flip it, drop the opacity, do the same exact thing you
did for this one right here. [inaudible] so now everything is
positioned the way we want it. The next step is to time remap it
because right now you can see this is scrolling without me even scrolling.
I don't want that. That looks crappy. So we need to time remap
it. So with this clip, I'm already starting in the zoom, so I might actually want to move it here
and grab this and just drag it out a little more to see if it's, yeah, see
right there. It's not moving at all. So I'm going to click on
it, right where its frozen. I'm going to right click and I'm going
to go to re time controls or you can hit control R if you're using my key binds,
if you want those, I've a video on that. Click the card in the top right
but come back to this video. So I want this part to be a freeze
frame. So this isn't moving. I'm going to make sure my playhead is
right where I want it to be frozen and I'm gonna go to this dropdown
section, hit freeze frame. And now I can just adjust
this, move this all around. So now that we have this freeze frame
right here where it's not moving, I want it to start moving
to see my hand moving up. I'm going to grab this speed point
and I'm just going to drag it. So now it's going to
start moving with my hand. So looks like we got the first two scrolls
pretty well and the third one is bad. So to fix this third scroll right here, you saw me wipe up and it
didn't actually do anything. We're going to re time that I see. That right here is where I
start to swipe. Once again, I'll put my playhead right where
I want this to start to scroll. I'll add a speed point on this and I'll
go to where it starts to scroll fast. It's going to be right here. Then I'm going to add another speed point
rabbit and you're just going to drag it close to the other one. So now it looks like the hologram
is moving with my fingers. [inaudible] I don't think to do is to add another
freeze frame right here because it's gonna start going into the video and I just
want it to stay on this menu right here. So I'm going to make the
freeze frame drop down, hit freeze frame, and then it should be
right there. Now I want this to stay, so I'm just gonna grab the freeze frame
and drag it out as long as this bottom clip is. So we're about
to jump into fusion. Let's just trim the rest of this stuff
off. We don't actually need any of this. Click on this and hit ripple edit
or you can cut it and delete it. So we have everything
exactly where we want to. So we're going to bring all of this
into fusion. Highlight everything, right click, go to new
fusion clip. And there it is. Now just jump right into fusion. So now we have all of our inputs and
they're being connected by merge nodes and into our media out. So anytime in fusion,
this is the first thing that I do. I right click, go to options, go to orthographical pipes and now it
makes everything right angles and then right click again and go to a
range tools and do to grids. So now it's going to snap to the grid
and everything will be right angles. It just looks nicer. So you can see that our full composition
is in fusion and you also that the opacity is back to normal. So the first thing we got to do
is we just have to drop it again. We're going to go to our merge one and
we're going to go to our alpha gain and we're going to drop that a
little. And if that's not enough, you don't want to go too far because it
turns white. But if that's not enough, go to blend and blend. We'll start to actually drop the opacity
even more and then do the same thing for our other. So we're going to name all of our clips
so we know what we're working with. So now we're ready to make
this effect come to life. We're going to grab our
merge nodes, our media out, and we're going to drag it over
there, hit the screen node, and then control space, which
will bring up the select tool. Type in scan lines and
just hit add scan lines, put lines running horizontally
through your clip. So it's going to simulate that
like projection computer look, we want them a little smaller, so go to our line frequency and just
bring it up to about 360 something like that. And then we're going to want to zoom in
by hitting control and then just scroll it using your scroll wheel and make sure
the lines are running horizontally with the bottom of your clip. So you're going
to mess with the line angle a little, so that looks good. Last thing we're going to do is we're
going to click color and then go to this kind of teal this like really light blue
color that is brings in more of like that hologram effect. So now we have to
do the same thing for the video popup. So instead of doing that all again, we're going to copy and paste the scan
lines down here. So click on your node, hit control C and then control V. so now
we have our scan lines node right here, but we have to add it in, grab it,
hold shift, and then go down here. And when you see the line turn blue,
let go and now adds it right in. So then when our clip finally
pops up, you see it over here. The next thing we have to
do is have that outer glow. Because what hologram doesn't have
a glow. So control space. Again, go to shadow and add this
one and drag that in. So we want to go to the softness and now
you see that it actually brings about a shadow that surrounds the whole thing. Turn this black shadow into blue shadow. So just find it right here,
uh, should be pretty good. And now we have that blue surround. We
needed to just make it a little less. It's a little too much right now. So we're going to drop the softness down
and also go to the alpha and just drop this down a little. Once again, we're going to copy and paste
this shadow onto the video layer. So on the shadow, hit control C and then control
V and paste this shadow node. Hold shift, drag it and drop it. So
now I have the same effect over here. Now we have the glow around
everything. This is what it looks like. [inaudible] so it looks good, but it's not
complete. The swipe effect doesn't work. The popup animation from the phone
to the hologram also isn't there. So we're gonna do that right now. So we're going to add the
animations by using transform nodes. So go to shadow and hit transform.
So now on to transform one, I'm going to go to the beginning. Am gonna find where I hit the button. So this goes right there. So
I wanted to actually end here. What we're gonna do is we're going
to start from the end and go to the beginning, cause I already have
everything positioned the way I want it. Under transform one, I'm going to go to center and size and
then I'm gonna move back to where I hit the button and I'm going to start scaling
it down to size and moving it over the phone. So that looks good. We can make it look smoother by going
to our spline under transformed one. You want to highlight it and hitF and
then just go back and it looks a little smoother. So close spline out and go
to your transformed two. And then we know that the swipe
animation's going to happen over here. So I'm officially touching right now the
hologram under my transform to hit size center. And this is
where I want it to start. And now I'm going to go
to where I wanted to end. Now you see the flick of the wrist.
Well that's where I want it to be gone. So I'm going to drop the size,
make my to make my ending point, and then under center move my X and my Y. Now I'm going to move it off a
little more and drop the size. Got it right where we want it. It looks like my hand is
swiping everything away so
we can make it look even better. So we can go under our
merge, add some transparency to this. So once it's swiping away, it's actually
getting more and more transparent. So for this you're going to click on your
transform two and under your first key frame, see right here,
your first key frame, you're gonna make sure it's on
it and then go to your merge one. And under blend you're
going to add a key frame. Let's find where it goes away. So right here should be gone. Let's add a second key frame and
drag this all the way down to zero. So now it looks like
you're swiping it away. Go back to transform two and under
setting we're going to go to motion blur. We're going to have some
quality motion blur right here. So added about five but also drop the
angle because you don't want it to be super blurry. You just want it
to look like it's moving away. Let's watch this all the way through [inaudible] this week I'm sharing the five things
that you can do if you want to learn filmmaking outside if films, and that is how you do the
hologram effect in davinci resolve. I know this has been a longer video,
but I hope you found it worth it. Would you be interested in more
fusions, tutorials just like this? Let me know in the comments below and
also if something comes to mind that you want to learn. Also put that in
the comments below. As usual, the video on the top is all about one of
the best transitions packs that I have ever used in davinci resolve and the video
on the bottom is a video that YouTube thinks that you would like.

Yeah this was sick, I just learned a ton. Thanks for posting!
Heck yeah this is great! I just subbed and will probably account for a ton of your new watch hours in the next week lol
